<h1>Displaying real-time web content: HTML containers</h1>
<p class="whs1">You can display real-time information from the 
 web within your dashboard. For example, you can display a stock ticker 
 running in real time, or your favorite financial page from the web that 
 is updated in real time.</p>
<p class="whs1">You can achieve this real-time display by creating 
 an HTML container and adding it to your dashboard. The real-time information 
 is displayed within the HTML container.</p>
<p class="whs1"><span style="color: #000000;"><font color=black >In an HTML container, 
 HTML code can be displayed directly in the document. The contents of the 
 HTML container can be displayed in the following modes in MicroStrategy 
 Web:</font></span></p>
<ul>
<li style="color: #000000;" class=p-TopicTextBulleted><p class=TopicTextBulleted>View</p></li>
	
<li style="color: #000000;" class=p-TopicTextBulleted><p class=TopicTextBulleted>Editable</p></li>
	
<li style="color: #000000;" class=p-TopicTextBulleted><p class=TopicTextBulleted>Interactive</p></li>
</ul>
<p class="whs1">You provide HTML code for the HTML container 
 using either of the following methods:</p>
<ul>
<li style="color: #000000;" class=p-TopicTextBulleted><p class=TopicTextBulleted>You 
 can enter HTML code when you create the HTML container. For an example, 
 see 
<a href="Using_HTML_code_to_display_HTML.htm">Using HTML code to display 
 HTML</a>.</p></li>
	
<li style="color: #000000;" class=p-TopicTextBulleted><p class=TopicTextBulleted>You 
 can provide a URL when you create the HTML container. The HTML code is 
 retrieved dynamically when the document is executed. For examples, see 
 
<a href="Displaying_a_website_using_a_URL_(IFrame).htm">Displaying a website 
 using a URL (IFrame)</a>.</p></li>
</ul>
<p class="whs1"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Note</B></span>: 
 Fully formatted HTML is not displayed when the document is displayed in 
 PDF View or when the document is exported to Excel. </p>
<p class="whs1">You can format the HTML container itself, with 
 borders and drop shadows, for instance. For examples and instructions, 
 see 
<a href="Formatting_HTML_containers.htm">Formatting HTML containers</a>. 
 The formatting of actual content inside the HTML container, however, is 
 determined by either the HTML code or the website displayed by the URL. 
 &nbsp;</p>
<p class="whs1">You can also arrange and resize HTML containers, 
 as you do other control types. For instructions and examples, see the 
 following:</p>
<ul>
<li style="color: #000000;" class=p-TopicTextBulleted><p class=TopicTextBulleted>
<a 
 href="Move_controls_on_documents.htm">Moving controls on documents</a></p></li>
	
<li style="color: #000000;" class=p-TopicTextBulleted><p class=TopicTextBulleted>
<a 
 href="Distribute_controls.htm">Distributing controls on documents</a></p></li>
	
<li style="color: #000000;" class=p-TopicTextBulleted><p class=TopicTextBulleted>
<a 
 href="Sizing_controls_on_documents.htm">Sizing controls on documents</a></p></li>
